Paperless tigers: new software lets you electronically distribute fully formatted documents across platforms and throughout networks
Article Abstract:
Electronic document delivery (EDD) software is enabling publishers to create, distribute and view documents without the use of paper. EDD software lets users distribute copies of existing documents among a number of systems by creating one master document file that can be read on every system. Adobe will ship Macintosh, Microsoft Windows, DOS and Unix versions of its Acrobat products in 1993. Frame Technology's $89.95 FrameReader for the Mac and for Windows, and the $395 FrameViewer for Unix display full text and graphics as well as hypertext links. Interleaf's $195 WorldView works across a range of platforms, supports hypertext and embedded objects, and substitutes fonts when necessary. No Hands Software's $189.95 Common Ground; Northern Telecom's Helmsman, $5 to $375; and Thaumaturgy Software's Electronic Document Delivery and Retrieval System are discussed.

Monism, pluralism, and rational regret
Article Abstract:
An analysis of monism, pluralism and rational regret reveals that the monistic theory of good allows for rational regret. Monism, defined in a conventional manner or otherwise, allows for the regret as a foregone lesser good. The proportionality view of good coupled with a modal condition gives a threshold of remoteness beyond which no love or regret is rational. Since the act of choosing between instances of the same generic good hardly occurs in reality, the study suggests allowing rational regret for specific good and then confirming it with a moderate number of good-making properties.

Equation of state for NaCl-H2O: comparison with mineral dehydration equilibria
Article Abstract:
Analysis of the predicted fugacity values for a previously published equation of state with respect to mineral reaction equilibria shows that the values of f(sub H2O) should be accurate for the range from 0.0 to 0.4 in mole fraction NaCl, for temperatures from 300-600 degree celsius. Comparison is made with the existing results for the dehydration of brucite at 630 degree celsius. Comparison with the results at 850 degree celsius is also satisfactory.
